RE: [newbie] Can't find KDE

[Franki]

Try typing:   startx   if it starts something other then kde   go to your home directory (like : /home/myname), and type:   touch .xinitrd   (think thats right..and don't forget the dot at the start of the name.)   that will make a file by that name, edit it and put the word:     startkde     in it...   then try typing startx again...   that should start kde just fine..     rgds   Frank     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Juliana Sent: Tuesday, 11 September 2001 1:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] Can't find KDE             I installed mandrake in my computer and now i can't find any of the graphical intarfaces. I tried typing KDE and kde after loging in and the screen became black. maybe that's not the right command, then if it's not, what is it? Another thing i noticed is that the only folder under the user is one called /tmp. maybe that's the problem.. I don't know. i'm sure i choose all the graphical interfaces for installing.             What should I do?   Juliana
